Really, no one should ever walk into Fringe mad scientist Walter Bishop's lab without passing by heaps and heaps of giant, flashing warnings. In a pinch, though, these simple posters should do the trick.

White holes are the opposite of black holes, objects into which nothing can enter but are constantly spewing out matter. They were thought to be completely hypothetical, more a mathematical oddity than a real thing...but we may have seen one.

Some black holes may be so ancient that they predate the stars themselves, forming instead in the chaotic first moments after the Big Bang. There might even be some black holes out there from the universe before the Big Bang.

Black holes have a well-deserved reputation for being cosmic destroyers, ripping apart anything that comes into contact with their intense gravitational forces. But a radical new theory says advanced intelligent life could live on planets inside black holes.

A seriously strange new theory says that stars may be connected through a system of stellar wormholes, linking distant pairs of stars thanks to an exotic material known only as phantom matter. Oh yes, this is going to get weird.

A group of researchers using sonar to find shipwrecks on the bottom of Lake Michigan have found something far older than crashed cargo ships. They believe they've found a 10-thousand-year-old stone structure like Stonehenge, including a rock carved with the image of a mastodon. io9 pal Geoff Manaugh reports over at…

University of Edinburgh is looking for a few research subjects for some ESP experiments. To volunteer, you must be a native English speaker and have had at least one paranormal experience. No, that does not include owning a season of The Supernatural on DVD. Apparently these experiments only take about 45 minutes and…

A team of indie filmmakers just wrapped The Beast of Bottomless Lake, their pseudo-documentary on the legendary Ogopogo monster, a massive creature said to live in British Columbia's Lake Okanagan. And now, a real-life documentary crew from the History Channel claims to have found a "baby Ogopogo" in an underwater…

Did a UFO land in the municipality of Chicoana last week? Locals have been seeing strange lights and even stranger crop circles in the region (pictured). Unlike your typical fake crop circles that form elaborate patterns and (occasionally) the logos for popular web browsers, these look more like exactly what you'd…

As we ramp up to the Day of the Dead, it's important for us to consider and contemplate all of the death sciences. Sure, you can learn true meaning of "necropolis" by studying megapolisomancy, but that's just supernatural stuff. If you want to get scientific, you've got to turn to the International Association for…

Back in the 1950s, reputable magazines like Popular Science wanted to encourage the general public to help the military find those elusive UFOs. After all, these were the days of Project Bluebook, an intelligence program to research UFOs (and aliens). Eager to help you to the government, Popular Science in 1953…

If you've watched any of JJ Abrams' scifi-themed shows over the years like Alias and Lost — or if you're lucky enough to have seen the season premiere of his new show Fringe before it airs Sept. 9 — you know the guy is obsessed with science. Well, not science as the journal Science would define it, but instead what…

The holidays are nearly over, and it's time to start going back to school or return to work after a summer vacation. What you probably didn't know is that it's also the end of UFO season for the Northern Hemisphere. So if you're looking for ET, it's time to hightail it down to New Zealand. Here's why, according to…

A pair of hikers exploring the Grassy Narrows in Ontario stumbled upon a berry-fancying big foot. They described it as being "about eight feet long and all black." One hiker told CBC news, "The way it walked was upright, human-like, but more - I don't know how to describe it - more of a husky walk, I guess. It didn't…

If you've been growing blue and red wires out of sores on your skin like hundreds of Morgellons disease sufferers have (pictured), then you may actually have a nano-fiber chemtrail infection. Or so says the "chemtrail activist" community, a group of amateur scientists who study the "fibers" that they claim are…
